The LR presidential candidate was mocked on social networks this weekend after her first campaign rally which was held this Saturday in Paris. In front of a conquered room, Valérie Pécresse multiplied the references to resistance during the Second World War: “Like you, I do not choose Pétain, I choose the sailors of the Ile de Sein” she launches. But she continues by committing a geographical blunder “I crossed the silence of Oradour-sur-Glane, martyr village of my heart Corrèze”. But now, the village is located in Haute-Vienne and not in Corrèze, which has not escaped the notice of many Internet users who have made it known on the networks.
Even the mayor of#OradourSurGlane wanted to react ???? # Pécresse2022 pic.twitter.com/6TSmTfvc0Z

A misstep noticed especially as the president of Ile-de-France says she is very attached to Corrèze.
